The following sections have changed in this edition:

a) spacings requirements – Clause 4.20.5, Part 1;

b) inrush current – Clause 4.24.4, Part 1;

c) risk of electric shock test – Clause 6.11, Part 1;

d) anti arcing test method – Clause 6.12, Part 1; and

e) harmonics proposal – Clause 4.25, Part 1 and Clause 4.19, Part 2.

C22.2 No. 74-16 – Part 1 – Ballasts for use with fluorescent lamps

Scope

1.1

Part 1 of this Standard applies to ballasts of the resistance, reactance, and electronic (solid state) types for use with fluorescent lamps, involving potentials of 2500 V to ground or less during either starting or running conditions, whether intended for mounting in a luminaire or otherwise, and designed to be employed on circuits of not more than 600 V between supply conductors in accordance with the Canadian Electrical Code, Part I.

1.2

In this Part of this Standard, shall is used to express a requirement, i.e., a provision that the user is obliged to satisfy in order to comply with the Standard; should is used to express a recommendation or that which is advised but not required; and may is used to express an option or that which is permissible within the limits of the Standard.
